So I'm working on a project where I can control certain things wirelessly using a custom GUI on a TFT LCD screen. So far I've got buttons with functions attached to them down. So what I want to do for starters is to activate, let's say, an LED turning on and off using the functions of the buttons. I am just not sure where to start. I am using an Uno to control my TFT. Do I use an ESP8266? Should I use multiple NRF24L01's to communicate from the arduino to the wireless components?

Thank you in advance to all who help!

I do own 5 arduino nanos which I can take advantage of and send signals from one to the other.

You could also use Bluetooth which I find quite interesting or maybe 433 if you need better distance.

I don't think I'll need a whole lot of distance to control things. Another example of something I'd use it for is controlling a servo.
